Cheese Tray




I've learned a few techniques to make a cheese tray for appetizers.

1. use 3 different cheeses. it can be diff colors, flavors, textures, heights anything.

2. Slice a few pieces off the block of cheese and cube for easier eating. Leave a big chunk of the cheese for better aesthetics.

3. Use large green leaves on the bottom or green grapes for color

4. Keep items in large groupings. It looks better this way. I don't know why or how but it does haha

5. try to make different shapes to keep the tray interesting.

  1. looks beautiful and appetizing, chef! what 3 cheeses did you use here? i see colby jack. perhaps mozzarella, cheddar, or swiss for the other two? or an insanely non-crumbly feta? haha also, is that salami? and why do the grapes look frozen?
